In addition, the notes do not require us to achieve or maintain any minimum financial results relating to our financial position or results of operations. Our ability to recapitalize, incur additional debt, secure existing or future debt, or take a number of other actions that are not limited by the terms of the indenture governing the notes or the notes, including repurchasing indebtedness or common shares or preferred shares, if any, or paying dividends, could have the effect of diminishing our ability to make payments on the notes when due. </font>

The indenture governing the notes provides that a principal domestic property means any building, structure or other facility, together with the land upon which it is erected and fixtures comprising a part thereof, used primarily for manufacturing, processing, research, warehousing or distribution and located in the United States of America (excluding its territories and possessions and Puerto Rico), owned or leased by us or any of our domestic subsidiaries and having a net book value which, on the date the determination as to whether a property is a principal domestic property is being made, exceeds 2% of our consolidated net assets, other than any such building, structure or other facility or a portion thereof (i)&#160;which is an air or water pollution control facility financed by state or local governmental obligations, or (ii)&#160;which the chairman of the board of directors, the chief executive officer, an executive vice president, a senior vice president or a vice president, and the chief financial officer, the treasurer, or an assistant treasurer, of Abbott determines in good faith, at any time on or prior to such date, is not of material importance to the total business conducted, or assets owned, by us and our subsidiaries as an entirety. Although it has not yet done so, under the terms of the indenture governing the notes, the chairman of our board of directors or any such executive officers may determine from time to time after the issuance of the notes that a property is not a principal domestic property and therefore such property is not subject to the covenants in the indenture governing the notes. </font>

In certain circumstances, the holders of any secured debt that we may have may foreclose on our assets securing such debt, reducing the cash flow from the foreclosed property available for payment of unsecured debt. The holders of any secured debt that we may have also would have priority over unsecured creditors in the event of our liquidation. In the event of our bankruptcy, liquidation, or similar proceeding, the holders of secured debt that we may have would be entitled to proceed against their collateral, and that collateral will not be available for payment of unsecured debt, including the notes.

As of December&#160;31, 2025, our subsidiaries had approximately $2,060 million of outstanding indebtedness (excluding intercompany debt and liabilities and accounts payable incurred in the ordinary course of business), of which approximately $2,036 million is attributable to senior notes issued by Abbott Ireland Financing DAC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Abbott&#160;Laboratories and special purpose vehicle, and guaranteed by Abbott Laboratories. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">The net proceeds from the sale of the notes will not be deposited into an escrow account pending any Special Mandatory Redemption, and the indenture governing the notes imposes no restrictions on our use of these proceeds. Accordingly, the source of funds for any redemption of notes upon a Special Mandatory Redemption would be the proceeds that we have voluntarily retained or other sources of liquidity, including available cash, borrowings, or sales of assets. It is possible that we will not have sufficient financial resources available to satisfy our obligations to redeem the notes if we are required to do so pursuant to the Special Mandatory Redemption provisions. Furthermore, our failure to redeem or repurchase the notes as required under the indenture would result in a default under the indenture, which could result in defaults under certain of our other debt agreements and have material adverse consequences for us and the holders of the notes. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Each party&#8217;s obligation to complete the Exact Sciences Acquisition is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement. These include, among others: (1)&#160;the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of all outstanding Exact Sciences Shares, (2)&#160;there being no law or order restraining, enjoining, making illegal or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the Merger, and (3)&#160;the expiration or termination of the waiting period applicable to the Merger under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (the &#8220;HSR Act&#8221;), as amended, and receipt of other specified regulatory approvals. The obligation of each of Abbott and Exact Sciences to consummate the Merger is also conditioned on the other party&#8217;s representations and warranties being true and correct (subject to specified materiality thresholds), the other party having performed in all material respects all of its pre-closing obligations under the Merger Agreement, and, in the case of Abbott, the absence of a material adverse effect on Exact Sciences. </font>

Any delay in completing the Exact Sciences Acquisition could cause us not to realize some or all of the benefits that we expect to achieve if the Exact Sciences Acquisition is successfully completed within the expected time frame. There can be no assurance that the conditions to the closing of the Exact Sciences Acquisition will be satisfied or waived or that the Exact Sciences Acquisition will be completed, or as to whether the Exact Sciences Acquisition will be completed on terms other than those set forth in the Merger Agreement as in effect as of the date of this prospectus supplement. </font>

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, subject to certain exceptions, Abbott and Exact Sciences are required to accept certain conditions and take certain actions imposed by governmental authorities that would apply to, or affect, the businesses, assets or properties of Abbott or Exact Sciences. There can be no assurance that regulators will not impose conditions, terms, obligations or restrictions and that such conditions, terms, obligations or restrictions will not have the effect of (i)&#160;delaying completion of the Exact Sciences Acquisition, (ii)&#160;imposing additional material costs on or materially limiting the revenues of the combined company following the Exact Sciences Acquisition, or (iii)&#160;otherwise adversely </font>

The full benefits of the Exact Sciences Acquisition, including the anticipated sales or growth opportunities, may not be realized as expected or may not be achieved within the anticipated time frame, or at all. Failure to achieve the anticipated benefits of the Exact Sciences Acquisition could adversely affect our results of operations or cash flows, cause dilution to our earnings per share, decrease or delay any accretive effect of the acquisition and negatively impact the price of our common shares and the market prices of the notes. </font>

We will continue to assess the magnitude of these costs, and additional unanticipated costs may be incurred in the Exact Sciences Acquisition and the integration of the two companies&#8217; businesses. Although we expect that the elimination of certain duplicative costs, as well as the realization of other efficiencies related to the integration of the businesses, should allow us to offset integration-related costs over time, this net benefit may not be achieved in the near term, or at all. The costs described above, as well as other unanticipated costs and expenses, could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and operating results following the completion of the Exact Sciences Acquisition. Many of these costs will be borne by us even if the Exact Sciences Acquisition is not completed.

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Publication of SOFR began in April&#160;2018. The future performance of SOFR (as defined herein) cannot be predicted based on the limited historical performance. Levels of SOFR going forward may bear little or no relation to the historical actual or historical indicative data. Prior observed patterns, if any, in the behavior of market variables and their relation to SOFR, such as correlations, may change in the future. Because only limited historical data have been released by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, such analysis inherently involves assumptions, estimates and approximations. The future performance of SOFR is impossible to predict and therefore no future performance of SOFR may be inferred from any of the historical actual or historical indicative data. Hypothetical or historical performance data are not indicative of, and have no bearing on, the potential performance of SOFR. There can be no assurance that SOFR will be positive. Investors in the Floating Rate Notes may not be able to sell the Floating Rate Notes at all or may not be able to sell the Floating Rate Notes at prices that will provide them with a yield comparable to similar investments that have a developed secondary market, and may consequently suffer from increased pricing volatility and market risk. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">For each Floating Rate Notes interest period, the interest rate on the Floating Rate Notes is based on Compounded SOFR, which is calculated using the SOFR Index (as defined herein) published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York according to the specific formula described under &#8220;</font><font style="font-style:italic;letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Description of Notes&#8201;&#8212;&#8201;Interest Rate on Notes&#8201;&#8212;&#8201;Floating Rate Notes&#8201;&#8212;&#8201;Compounded SOFR</font><font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">&#8221;, not the SOFR rate published on or in respect of a particular date during such Floating Rate Notes interest period or an arithmetic average of SOFR rates during such period. For this and other reasons, the interest rate on the Floating Rate Notes during any Floating Rate Notes interest period will not be the same as the interest rate on other SOFR-linked investments that use an alternative basis to determine the applicable interest rate. Further, if the SOFR rate in respect of a particular date during a Floating Rate Notes interest period is negative, its contribution to the SOFR Index will be less than one, resulting in a reduction to Compounded SOFR used to calculate the interest payable on the Floating Rate Notes on the Floating Rate Notes interest payment date for such Floating Rate Notes interest period. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">The level of Compounded SOFR applicable to a particular Floating Rate Notes interest period and, therefore, the amount of interest payable with respect to such Floating Rate Notes interest period will be determined on the Interest Payment Determination Date (as defined herein) for such Floating Rate Notes interest period. Because each such date is near the end of such Floating Rate Notes interest period, you will not know the amount of interest payable with respect to a particular Floating Rate Notes interest period until shortly prior to the related Floating Rate Notes interest payment date and it may be difficult for you to reliably estimate the amount of interest that will be payable on each such Floating Rate Notes interest payment date. In addition, some investors may be unwilling or unable to trade the Floating Rate Notes without changes to their information technology systems, both of which could adversely impact the liquidity and trading price of the Floating Rate Notes. </font>

        <div style="text-indent:20pt; margin-top:8pt; width:456pt; line-height:11.5pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">The following is a general discussion of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S.&#160;holders and non-U.S. holders (each as defined below) with respect to the ownership and disposition of notes acquired in this offering, but it does not purport to be a complete analysis of all the potential tax considerations. This discussion is limited to the U.S. federal income tax consequences relevant to holders that acquire notes in the initial offering at their original &#8220;issue price&#8221; and hold them as &#8220;capital assets&#8221; within the meaning of Section&#160;1221 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the &#8220;Code&#8221;) (generally, property held for investment). This discussion does not address tax consequences relevant to subsequent purchasers of the notes. This discussion is based on current provisions of the Code, the Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, judicial decisions and administrative rulings and published positions of the Internal Revenue Service (the &#8220;IRS&#8221;), each as in effect as of the date hereof and all of which are subject to change or differing interpretations, possibly with retroactive effect, and any such change or interpretation could affect the accuracy of the statements and conclusions set forth herein. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">The following discussion is for general information only and does not purport to be a complete analysis of all the potential U.S. federal income tax effects that may be relevant to particular holders in light of their particular circumstances. This discussion does not address the effect of any special rules under the U.S.&#160;federal income tax laws applicable to certain types of persons, including, for example, dealers in securities or currencies, insurance companies, banks or other financial institutions, persons subject to any minimum tax, thrifts, real estate investment trusts, regulated investment companies, tax-exempt entities, grantor trusts, U.S. persons whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar, former citizens and residents of the United States, persons who hold notes as part of a straddle, hedge, conversion transaction, or other risk reduction or integrated transaction, traders in securities that elect to use a mark-to-market method of tax accounting for their securities holdings, corporations treated as &#8220;personal holding companies,&#8221; &#8220;controlled foreign corporations,&#8221; &#8220;passive foreign investment companies,&#8221; individual retirement accounts, qualified pension plans and other tax-deferred accounts, partnerships or other entities or arrangements treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes, other pass-through entities (or investors therein) and persons required to accelerate the recognition of any item of gross income with respect to the notes as a result of such income being recognized on an applicable financial statement. This discussion does not address any tax consequences arising under the unearned income Medicare contribution tax pursuant to the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 nor any considerations with respect to any withholding required pursuant to the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act of 2010 (including the Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder and any intergovernmental agreements entered in connection therewith and any laws, regulations or practices adopted in connection with any such agreement). This discussion does not address any U.S. state or local or non-U.S. tax consequences, nor does it address any U.S. federal tax considerations other than those pertaining to the income tax (</font><font style="font-style:italic;letter-spacing:0.2pt;">e.g.</font><font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">, estate and gift tax laws). </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Prospective investors should consult their own tax advisors as to the particular tax consequences to them of the ownership and disposition of the notes, including the applicability and effect of any U.S. federal income and other tax laws, any state, local or non-U.S. tax laws or any treaty and any changes (or proposed changes) in tax laws or interpretations thereof. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">If any entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds notes, the tax treatment of a person treated as a partner in such partnership will generally depend upon the status of the partner and upon the activities of the partnership. Persons that for U.S. federal income tax purposes are treated as partners in any partnership holding notes should consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax consequences to them of the ownership or disposition of the notes. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">The terms of the notes provide for payments by us in excess of stated interest or principal or prior to their scheduled payment dates under certain circumstances. The possibility of such payments may implicate special rules under Treasury regulations governing &#8220;contingent payment debt instruments.&#8221; According to those Treasury regulations, the possibility that such payments of excess or accelerated amounts will be made will not affect the amount of income a holder recognizes in advance of such payments, if, as of the date the notes are issued, there is only a remote chance that such payments will be made. We intend to take the position that the likelihood that that such payments will be made is remote within the meaning of the applicable Treasury regulations. Our position that these contingencies are remote is binding on a holder, unless such holder discloses its contrary position to the IRS in the manner required by the applicable Treasury </font>

Our position is not, however, binding on the IRS, and if the IRS were to challenge this position successfully, a holder might be required, among other things, to (1)&#160;accrue interest income based on a projected payment schedule and comparable yield, which may be a higher rate than the stated interest rate on the notes and (2)&#160;treat as ordinary income, rather than capital gain, any gain recognized on a sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition of a note. In the event that a contingency described above were to occur, it could affect the amount, timing and character of the income or loss recognized by a holder. Prospective holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax consequences if the notes were treated as contingent payment debt instruments. The remainder of this discussion assumes that the notes will not be considered contingent payment debt instruments. </font>

If any of the underwriters or their affiliates have a lending relationship with us, certain of those underwriters or their affiliates routinely hedge, and certain other of those underwriters may hedge, their credit exposure to us consistent with their customary risk management policies. Typically, these underwriters and their affiliates would hedge such exposure by entering into transactions which consist of either the purchase of credit default swaps or the creation of short positions in our securities, including potentially the notes offered hereby. Any such credit default swaps or short positions could adversely affect future trading prices of the notes offered hereby. The underwriters and their affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or financial instruments and may hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments. </font>

The following is a summary of the material provisions of the indenture and is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of the indenture, including definitions of certain terms used in the indenture. Wherever Abbott refers to particular sections or defined terms of the indenture, those sections or defined terms are incorporated by reference in this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement.

In this section of this prospectus, references to &#8220;Abbott&#8221; are to Abbott Laboratories (and not its subsidiaries) and any person that succeeds thereto, and is substituted therefor, under the terms of the indenture. </font>
